Jim,
In Australia, the treatment for snakebite has changed in the last 20
years or so.
It has been shown that snake venom mainly travels in the lymph system
rather than the blood stream, so the current treatment is to apply a
firm pressure bandage over most of the limb concerned (not to the
point of cutting blood flow), and then get to medical help for an
anti-venine shot. Cutting the bite actually makes it worse, as it
does provide a greater chance to get venom into the blood stream.
Check with your snake-bite experts in USA, as the treatment may have
changed there also.
Cheers, John G.
